I picked this up at a recent librarian reading summit. What a great nonfiction picture book that falls right into the CCSS. I can't wait to share it with students this fall. The book is beautifully illustrated by Bandelin-Dacey. Her watercolor paintings are soft, bright and realistic.
This book is appropriate for early elementary and is a great example of a compare and contrast text. The content is informative and includes many nonfiction text features including diagrams, fun facts, glossary, index, and picture captions.
I loved this picture book and actually learned some great facts. I especially fell in love with the pictures. Loved it!
